Abstract:
This article reports a case of an elderly female patient with osteoporotic vertebral fractures who experienced recurrent fractures within a short period after percutaneous vertebroplasty. The case highlights the necessity and importance of implementing anti-osteoporosis interventions to prevent subsequent fractures, in addition to performing appropriate orthopedic management for the initial fracture.
